Doug Marlette is a master at skewering the pompous and pissing off people. Senator Jesse Helms was a regular victim when Marlette was at the Charlotte Observer. Helms, however, used to ask for the original cartoon to frame on his walls.

Years ago, I got to see Marlette in person at the local high school when one of my kids was inducted into the Honor Society. Creative guy! [link|http://dougmarlette.com/|His site.]
